Somewhere Between National Pepperoni And Sausage Pizza Day, Call Today “No Man’s Land” Pizza Day And Enjoy It There

September 26, 2018

It’s no secret that local pizza is more than a passion at Saline Journal. Twelve months ago, we produced a video focused on East Michigan Avenue options for National Cheese Pizza Day. [1,2] That day, September 5, passed weeks ago now. Next up? You’ll have to wait for National Sausage Pizza Day on October 11. For those looking for labels and celebrations, the calendar provides no directed help until then. [3] But just as it ....

Ready or Not, Autonomous Vehicles Rolled Further Ahead This Week Toward Inevitability with Mobility for All

May 31, 2018

Less than a year ago, discussion of autonomous vehicle manufacture here in Saline seemed to be valued with little more than interest than dutiful re-posting of press release copy. A little further out and a month later, there was more talk, of a self-driving vehicle being tested for pizza delivery in Ann Arbor. But then we got clarification that it was never actually used in self-driving mode. [1,2,3,4] Fast-foward to this past January, and Saline ....

December 27, 2018

Shortly after the 2018 North American International Auto Show (NAIAS), Dr Ken Washington of the Ford Motor Company predicted that things will change more for that industry in the next five years than they had in the first hundred. However, while automotive may be the current nexus of attention in coming transformation, it is clearly just one part of how society as a whole will become radically different in Dr Washington’s projected time frame.
